You should always click on the item and start recording in Audacity, before inserting the needle into the disc. Set when you start to place the needle on the record and then running Audacity to record before the music starts to play, rushed, and probably miss the first part of music anyway. Remember that all background noise, such as placing the needle on the record or other false starts, easily edited by Audacitylater.
After recording an entire side of the plate, I always stop in Audacity. Some people may prefer, simply click the pause button in Audacity, flip the disc and start recording again for a long file name. However, because the songs are different the album into separate tracks on the digital file to be divided in any case, it is equally easy to do, one side at a time.
When recording is an important element of the user interface of Audacity eighth left and rightOne meter. They will "dance" or fill-in after the music volume. They should both show as strong a signal. If they do not, there is something wrong with your turntable, the cable, the audio settings on your computer, or set the balance control on the turntable.
Avoid taking too high a level, or "clipping".
The input meters left and right appear as green when they are a good strong signal. It is recommended to fillalmost all the way in the passages out loud to ensure a good strong signal. However, they should not be veering into the "red zone". This means that the turntable device is too high, what "clipping", or loud sounds over the entire range of the recorder, and could cause distortions in the recording ended. It 'better to start recording a bit' too soft then as too strong, you can always play the song in iTunes at the standard anyway.
While recording the song,see the "serpentine" in Audacity dance to the music. When the song ended and you press the stop button, Audacity, Audacity creates the waveform, or the visual representation of music. The waveform changes can be made.
You can use the Loupe tool in Audacity to a portion of the signal in order to refine the selection, for example, to eliminate the empty space at the beginning or end of the album to zoom.
To select a portion of the waveform, drag the tool over I-Beamthe portion of the waveform that you work, as you would drag the cursor to a line of text to delete some words. Release the mouse button after clicking on the desired point and that a portion of the waveform is drawn highlighted.
If you do not have the pride of the place, you can disable any point on the waveform and then try again. If you're satisfied, press the Delete key on the keyboard and the unwanted parts of the recording is canceled.
Audacityhas a filter for the pops and clicks that an inevitable by-product of vinyl should be removed, but in all honesty, would not work very well. It 'very difficult for a filter of this type of noise without removing some of the presence of a strong and removal. My advice is to try not to remove the pops and clicks, but it was part of the "heat" and "richness" of vinyl!
